"Additionally, Morgan Stanley analysts predict that copper prices will rise 7.6 percent, to $8,554 per metric ton (MT), or $3.88 per pound, from $7,952 in 2012. The forecast is based on anticipated demand increases from China, the US and even Europe, Bloomberg reported.........
Brendan Metcalfe | Seeking Alpha
Papua New Guinea is an investment opportunity often overlooked by emerging market bulls. What do they commonly look for? High growth, steady government, abundant resources.
The economy of PNG is steady and growing quickly on the strength of the agriculture, mining, and oil/gas industries. The country is one of the worlds most unexplored and this thought to still be home to numerous undocumented plants, animals, insects, tribes, and languages.
This underdeveloped economy is ready for growth and appears surprisingly open to foreign investment. Like every nation on Earth, there are problems (which I will outline), but what makes investment in PNG special is the how surprisingly overlooked and underdeveloped the country and economy is despite the vast natural resources and economic and political stability.
Pros
GDP Growth
PNG's GDP was 16.9 Billion in 2011, a growth of 8.9% (12th in the word according to the CIA) from 7.8 and 6.1 percent in 2010 and 2009 respectively. The Debt-to-GDP is a surprisingly low 22.9%. The government is pro-investment in a country that has good reason to want to protect its incredible wealth of natural resources. ExxonMobil recently led an approved 16 billion dollar liquefied natural gas deal.
Chinese investment is "just beginning" according to The Australian, yet state-owned Chinese firms have already broken ground in numerous mining projects including the 1.4$ Billion dollar Ramu nickel project. Malaysian logging companies export to China. Canadian company Talisman Energy is making bets on PNG. The Industrial Production Growth Rate, as measured by the CIA World Factbook, was 10% in 2011. The country is open to development and GDP growth is already excellent.
Sri Lanka is the other country besides PNG revised up 1% from previous projections. PNG was revised up 2.2%.
Geographic Positioning
PNG is neighbors with the Philippines, Japan, Malaysia, and Indonesia (whom PNG shares its sole land border with). Long-term support in trade, defense, and diplomacy is near-guaranteed from neighbors and fellow Commonwealth members Australia and New Zealand. Apmple trade can be expected from all neighbors as well as Russia, India, China. It is clear that Papua New Guinea is well positioned to benefit from rising number of accessible creditors and trading partners in Asia.
Unexploited Resources
The Wall Street Journal writes:
"once a frontier region for exploration, Papua New Guinea has been transformed into a playground for the energy industry's big beasts seeking gas reserves that can be developed and shipped to Asia's booming economies."
The country is known to many mining investors and has huge proven oil and natural gas patches. Papua New Guinea is also still largely unexplored with oil and gas in mind, and more opportunities are surely undiscovered.
PNG also has one of the largest remaining tuna stocks in the world, and is an exporter of crayfish and prawns. Most of PNG is covered in dense rainforest that ranks as the world's third largest. This is extremely fertile land. The agriculture sector is unsurprisingly subsistence based, and more than most, but we can see this as an opportunity to introduce advanced farming equipment and techniques. The agriculture sector is trending up and the citizens of PNG are set to benefit from their knowledge and expertise; according to the CIA, 85% of the working population works in agriculture.
Commonwealth
The country is one of the few remaining commonwealth realms with considerable land mass alongside Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. One could point to this as a stamp of stability. It is important to note that PNG consists of almost a thousand languages and many ethnic groups. The government is a great unifying element the people need to lead Papua World Guinea into the world economy.
Cons That Aren't Really Cons
Land issues
Currently 97% of PNG land is on 'protected reserves' of hundreds of fragmented tribal communities, but this is changing. The hundreds or thousands of languages and ethnic groups in PNG are rapidly disappearing. People are moving to cities. The tribal land system is written in the PNG constitution, and some foreigners have become entagled in land disputes. The tribal land system, for good or bad, is showing signs of break down or compromise. According to Greenpeace, land is being signed over to investors with relative ease on 99 year leases. Offshore concessions are accessible.
High Crime Rates
High crime rates land the capital city Port Moresby the 139th out of 140 most "unlivable cities" according to The Economist. The government isn't spending a whole lot of money on infrastructure or relieving social ills, which is good or bad depending on the school of economics you adhere to. PNG is actually paying off its defecits. After a period of sustained foreign investment the improved infrastructure, job opportunities , and standard of living should substantially lower crime rates. Should a stable emerging market be in leagues with the countries below?
Inflation Rate
Although inflation was 8.4% in 2011, The World Bank suggested in a report on PNG the same year that "PNG's inflation has shifted to being domestically-driven, caused by capacity constraints in the face of the large increases in demand, in contrast with the historical pattern of inflation outbreaks being due to rising import prices." The nation's currency, the Kina, is also making a consistent and notable rise in value against the American dollar.
Where to Invest
PNG is home to possibly the most rural population in Asia (at 82%) and as more people move to cities there is a need for residential housing, grocery stores, and other service sector opportunities. In energy we can get direct exposure from InterOil (IOC). PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia (TLK) is taking stakes in firms outside Indonesia, and could have good reason invest in its land neighbor. Mining access on the public markets include Australia-based firms like Highlands Pacfic, Peabody Energy Australia, and international firms Papua Mining PLC and Papuan Precious Metals Corp. ExxonMobil (XOM), Talisman Energy (TLM), and Xstrata also have natural gas rights in PNG. New Guinea Energy is more direct. The Papua New Guinean Kina (PGK) could be an option as well, and has made consistent gains against the US dollar (42% over 5 years).
Eine große Trendwendeformation könnte jetzt die jahrelange Stärke des Australdollar beenden.

300113 ARAWA HOSPITAL MOVE
By Aloysius Laukai
The Central Regional Parliamentary Committee has recommended that the ARAWA GENERAL HOSPITAL be fully re-instated to its former status.
The Committee recommended that the Allocation of ONE MILLION KINA be used to upgrade the facilities at the Arawa Health Centre to facilitate the move.

290113 RABAN ON BUSINESS BILL
By Aloysius Laukai
One of the Executives of the Bougainville Business Association, THOMAS RABAN is calling on the Autonomous Bougainville Government to settle outstanding bills owed by the government to the local Businesses.
Speaking on New Dawn FM last night, MR. RABAN said that the Government must assist the Business Houses instead of killing them.
He said now that the ABG has 390 million to spend this year it must start to pay bills owed for services rendered to the Government.
MR. RABAN said that Bougainville Business houses cannot compete with outsiders coming into the region because the Government does not honor its commitment to its own people.

Frieda River, ist von der Grösse her durchaus vergleichbar mit der Pangunamine.
Beim Zeitplan u. Kosten (4,5 Jahre/5 Billion) hat BOC jedoch den unbestreitbaren Vorteil dass die Mineacsessroad u. Hafen schon vorhanden sind u. die Profitabilität durch eine 18 jährige Miningaktivität zweifelsfrei bewiesen sind.
Gynnie Kero | The National
XSTRATA Copper continues the process of assessing the interest of a number of potential investors in the US$5.6 billion Frieda River project in East Sepik, according to an Xstrata spokesperson
“We have confidentiality agreements in place and are unable to mention the number of interested parties,” she said.
Studies on the Frieda River project have identified a potential operation with an estimated capital cost of US$5.6 billion, according to Xstrata’s feasibility study and 2012 study programme report.
According to the spokesperson, the project has an estimated annual production profile of 204,000 tonnes copper and 305,000 ounces of gold, over a 20-year mine life.
“The Frieda River Project is owned in joint venture by Xstrata Frieda River (81.82%) and Highlands Pacific (18.18%),” she said.
“We delivered our feasibility study and 2012 study programme report to our joint venture partner (Highlands Pacific) last month (December 2012).
“The extended 2012 study outlines a project with an estimated initial capital requirement of US$5.6 billion, with a 20‐year open pit mine life capable of producing on average an estimated 304,000 tonnes copper and 451,000 ounces of gold in its first five years.
“A decision has not yet been taken to start mining at the Frieda River project and in 2013 we will progress further technical studies associated to infrastructure for the potential mine.
“Following that, a decision to start mining would depend on the identification of a sustainable profitable project (final execution model), government approvals of the environmental impact statement (EIS), successful completion of land issues, compensation and resettlement agreements, and corporate approvals.”
“At this stage we do not have an expected date for the project to start production. However once construction commences the proposed construction period is approximately four and a half years.
“This year (2013), we are conducting additional infrastructure studies, including a study programme focused on more efficient waste management and associated infrastructure that could potentially reduce the initial capital to US$5 billion.
“We will also continue our comprehensive community affairs activities, environmental baseline monitoring, and of course engagement with the various levels of government to discuss the outcomes from the recently-delivered feasibility study and 2012 study programme.”
THE Government is now seriously focusing on addressing the law and order situation of Papua New Guinea, Prime Minister Peter O’Neill outlined yesterday.
This is one of the three key factors of the Government focus – the other two are health and education.
Law and order has been one of the major setbacks of major investments in PNG, but as Mr O’Neill said in the Breakfast meeting yesterday, it is now a major concern for his Government.
He said the emphasis on law and order was to help businesses and to engage more, work together with private companies under the Public private Partnership program –therefore addressing the law and order situation to attract more investors.
“Our team is getting the management of the national government in order, so we can really achieve all that our great nation can achieve,” he said.
“We also need the private sector to get itself in order, so
that we can together build a stronger, fairer and even more united nation. We can achieve real economic development and strong social progress if we work together.
“The budget we are now beginning to implement provides for record spending on key areas, health, education and law and order and is up by a massive 50 percent on 2012 budget allocations.
“These areas will see spending this year of K7.5 billion compared to K5 billion last year. The budget also begins a much needed
massive boost in infrastructure spending, rehabilitating roads and ports and bridges and providing massive new infrastructure to meet the needs of the community, business and industry and the resource sector.
“Over the next five years, the life of this Parliament, we will spend an additional K12 billion on infrastructure – social and economic.
“This year we have increased a substantial amount of money and that includes that law and order. We increased over 50 per cent and that’s why I said in my earlier speech that we are now focused on addressing law and order in the country in many ways.”

BOUGAINVILLEANS have been urged to start planning and preparing for the coming referendum.
Speaker of the Bougainville House of Representatives, Hon. Andrew Miriki, speaking at the launch of the Central Region Planning Alignment Workshop held in Panguna, said that with less than 3 years to go before the referendum, it was now time to seriously prioritise issues affecting the people and start implementing solutions.
The Speaker said many of the issues like health, education and infrastructure development were on-going and not new and he challenged participants at the workshop to plan well and deliver these basic services adding that it would be a big mistake if Bougainville members where not providing solutions.
He said Bougainville is working within a time limit and whether Bougainvilleans are ready or not they will go into the referendum to vote for the Autonomous Region’s future.
Minister for mining, lands and natural resources Hon. Michael Oni said that for a long time the people of Central Bougainville have been seeking delivery of basic services and he urged participants at the workshop to set priorities that support Bougainville’s plans for the future.
The workshop, which began on Monday was purposely to plan, prioritise and budget for service delivery to districts in Central Bougainville in-line with data collected by district officers at the end of last year on issues affecting the districts.

A JOINT police and former combatants operation in Central Bougainville to rid the region of illicit drugs and homebrewed alcohol is gathering favourable support from the community.
The operation which began on the 28th of December last year will continue till Central Bougainville is declared a homebrew and drug free zone.
Speaking from Panguna, former combatants operations commander Greg Busuai said that apart from confiscating home-brewing kits and arresting marijuana traffickers and users, the joint operation task
force is also taking an active educational roll in educating the public on the dangers of engaging in these activities.
Mr Busuai said since the inception of the operation, there is a greater feeling of guaranteed safety among
the general public to move around freely and to conduct their daily business.
He said communities are beginning to realise the efforts of the operations and willingly assisting them with their job.
Panguna district Youth Council chairman Noah Doko said illicit drugs and homebrew never were and are not a part of Bougainville culture and customs and the joint operation efforts is a way forward in laying the foundation for the future of Bougainville youth.
Mr Doko said these illegal activities emerged after the ten year civil crisis and many youths born during and after that time have an established mind-set that it is a norm.
He said the joint operation is a model example of two entities, the Bougainville police service and former combatants, working together for a common purpose.
He urged all stakeholders and Bougainville leaders to take this example and stand united to rectify Bougainville’s past and unite and work together towards the referendum.
Members of the community have indicated that since the commencement of the joint operations, there has been a noticeable decline in problems such as violence and disturbance associated with drugs and homebrew.
Beim Panguna Workshop wurde nicht nur über das Referendum diskutiert, da stand ganz klar die Wiedereröffnung der Pangunamine u. das Drawdown of Miningpower im Vordergrund.

aber ich bilde mir meine eigene Meinung.
Alleine heute Nacht wurden wieder 187000 Stück
aus dem ASK in Australien gekauft und der Kurs verharrt bei 0,58 AUD.
Irgendwann wird hier was passieren, anders kann ich mich diese Volumina nicht erklären.
Ich habe vor Wochen ehrlich gesagt Kurse in Frankfurt um 0,4€ vermutet und
Diese nutze ich die nächsten Wochen zum Kauf.

US-based Southern Copper (SCC) (NYSE, Lima: SCCO) expects strong growth in China and other emerging economies this year to boost copper demand by 5%, CFO Raul Jacob said Friday.
"Demand has been repeatedly affected by macroeconomic factors, but at present we perceive a more positive environment as some of these issues have been resolved or are perceived to have a more positive outlook from now on," Jacob said during a conference call to discuss the company's fourth quarter results.
Chinese copper demand alone is predicted to see an 8.5% increase in 2013, according to Jacob.
"On the supply side, we think that several structural factors such as labor, technical problems and other issues are still affecting copper supply, reducing the net impact of production coming from new projects and expansions," he added.
SCC produced a total of 651,908t of copper in 2012, and has set 2013 guidance at 650,000t.
The company operates mines and metallurgical facilities producing copper, molybdenum, zinc, silver and gold in Peru and Mexico.
Southern Copper is 80%-owned by Grupo México (BMV: GMEXICOB), with the remainder held by the international investment community.

Strategic planning is a key tool in any organisation, to better implement the policy to achieve set goals and objectives, says Professor Gerry Nkombo Muuka.
Prof Gerry said this on Friday in a two day Executive Strategic Planning and Broadening of PNG Economy seminar, organized by Head of Commerce Department of Lae University of Technology, Prof Bita Abubaka.
The seminar was held at the Grand Papua Hotel in Port Moresby.
Prof Gerry said that strategic planning involves team work.
The proffessor, who is the Associate Dean and Professor of management at Murray State University in the United State of America (USA), further defined TEAM as “Together Everyone Achieves More”. He flew in from America on Thursday morning upon an invitation, and was here to further strengthen the knowledge of the executives of different organization’s that attended the seminar.
He said that corporate strategic planning and the broadening of the PNG Economy seminar is a timely organized seminar as 2013 as stated by the current O’Neill-Dion government as the year of implementation.
To better implement strategic plans, every organisation needs to have the right person with the right job qualification to handle the right job or (right person with right job at a right time or job). Prof Gerry said that a person who knows the job valued with his or her educational qualification will handle the job smoothly and will likely implement policies and plans and the country or organisation grows and finally achieves the set goals and objectives. But he said the country and organization will not grow/develop if a person qualified in one field is working another field that is different from his/her qualifications.
Any organization can grow and be competitive if right people are working in the right position and as a team.
“That is, strategically, you must work together, you will not stand alone, if you stand on your own and do not want to cooperate, and then you are likely to fall or bow down and will not achieve your set goals,” said Prof Gerry.
Meanwhile, Finance minister James Marape, officially opened the seminar, saying that the country’s development really hinges on all agencies of the state to work in congruence to the intention, spirit and guide of the Medium Term Development Plan, the National Strategic Plan and the country’s Vision 2050.
Marape said establishing links from national goals to corporate or organisational goals to individual goals, is amongst one of the greater challenges facing the country. Minister Marape said such seminars will give us a view of how best we individuals relate to our corporate and national plans. The seminar will end today.
Keiner weiß ob es noch weiter fällt,
aber von Diesen Kursen hätten wir vor 1 Jahr geträumt.
Statt 100.000 Stück kann man jetzt 250.000 Stück kaufen...und die dann auch gleich ins Aktionärsregister eintragen lassen.
- "von Diesen Kursen hätten wir vor 1 Jahr geträumt."
Die meisten hier haben vor einem Jahr sicherlich von Kursen deutlich jenseits von 1 AUD geträumt - allerdings wohl mehr in der anderen Richtung.
Du solltest Dich beeilen, wenn Du noch 250.000 Stück kaufen willst, denn lange wirst Du das nicht mehr können. Zur Erinnerung noch mal der Ausblick vom 1.1.2013:
"Luckily 2013 announces positive prospects: Within the next months all steps for re-opening the Panguna mine by BCL will be accomplished, the fraudulent US-short-sellers will stop to push down the share price because with every short sell their activities are supposed to end in a financial catastrophe for them. We believe that the BCL share price will see an impressive turn-around during the next months that will soar the share price to AUD 3 or more!"

Also - immer ran an den Speck ...
Mein Warten bisher hat sich bereits gelohnt. Kurs ist bereits gut gefallen seit ich erstmalig hier aufmerksam wurde. Vlt. geht da noch mehr...
In der Zwischenzeit arbeitet mein Geld für mich anderweitig.
dann können noch viele von uns die nächsten wochen und Monate kaufen.
Wir alle ihre Stücke eintragen lassen und wir danach ein Aktionärsregister bestellen,
dann werden wie Veränderungen sehen müssen und dann decken wir auf,
woher die vielen Stücke kommen.
Du bist bestimmt nicht der einzige.
Wenn der Kurs aber dreht, dann werden Leute wie Du,
den Kurs in kurzer Zeit sehr viel Dynamik verleihen.
Viel Erfolg
